San Juan ZIP codes — San Juan County, Colorado

San Juan County is a very small community in Colorado, with 690 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates. The median age here is 42.2 years against 39.1 nationally, a slightly older profile than the country as a whole. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.

Households in San Juan County earn a median of $73,889 a year, 5.9% below the national figure of $78,538. This figure covers the household, not the worker: two people on ordinary wages at one address outrank a single professional in the same table. Poverty reaches 16.8% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in San Juan County is valued at $406,900, 34.1% above the national figure, while median gross rent runs $1,076 a month, 23.5% below the national figure, or roughly $12,912 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 17.5% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 5.5×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is harder here than in the average US market. 55.5% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. Rent is reported gross — contract rent plus tenant-paid utilities — which is why it runs above the advertised price on a listing for the same unit.

With 690 residents, a handful of survey responses moves every median on this page. Compare San Juan County against its county rather than against national figures.

No figure on this page is estimated by us; each one comes straight from the published ACS tables for this area. Small-area estimates still carry wider margins of error than state or national figures, so check the linked ACS tables before relying on them for lending, appraisal or legal work.
